Asif Altaf

Not just beauty
Even within the abomination lies the craftsmanship of art

The butcher’s chapati is a flower-like arrangement of meat in bunches;

The bullet that danced in the killer’s mature hand
He also left the body of the deceased to take his life
Signature of aesthetic sense;

A skilled assassin means an artist;

What a beautiful dexterity in Dom’s hands in the mortuary
The knife dissects the body of the corpse;

He was crushed under the storm
Artistic expansion;

There is no more beautiful and noble art than death;

Numerous artistic fascinations say negative
We are constantly losing.

[Asif Altaf is a poet from Khulna, Bangladesh.]
